St. Martin Luxury Travel Guide

St. Martin

It may be a small island in the Caribbean but it certainly has two distinct personalities. As a result of tumultuous colonization, Saint Martin, also known as Sint Maarten, is a two-for-one deal as both a French and Dutch Caribbean getaway. The northern part of the island is the French region known as Saint Martin, offering secluded coves, seductive scenery and quiet villas. The southern Dutch part of the island, Sint Maarten is home to gorgeous luxury resorts and exquisite boutique hotels.

This more developed area is a divine choice for the relaxing luxury vacation filled with leisurely beach days and easy living. Those who travel to St. Martin will be handsomely rewarded with beautiful bluffs overlooking pretty harbors and sandy-cliff beaches spilling into crystal clear water. Overall, the island offers spectacular diving spots in the rocky coves and vibrant marine life.

Some of the more famous beaches in St Maarten St Martin include Maho Beach and Mullet Bay. Maho Beach is the often-photographed powdery beach that's located so close to the airport planes seem to hover over the sun-worshippers before landing on the runway. Mullet Bay is by far considered the jewel of St Maarten's coast, with wide stretches of bleach-blonde sand fringed my palm trees swaying lazily in the breeze. Other popular beaches include the Grand Case and the clothing-optional Orient Beach on the French side of St Martin.
